2LT Leicht?!?

[Texas Cop]

I never woulda thunk it either...But that just may be the case in 2 years...I've put in my application to enter the Armys Green to Gold program (for enlisted personnel with 2+ years of college already to leave active duty, with pay, attend final 2 years, and return with commission), and pending my medical clearance, it is a very real possibility I've been told...:bigeyes: Damn, I was just getting used to the idea of not being a private any more, and was contemplating my stripes...

Good luck Drew.

Thanks! It'll be good to finish up my degree, and get paid while I do it to boot. What was your branch T? I was thinking of going into MI, if I don't stay Cav (er...Armor :smile: )

Awesome. I hope this works out. When my brother-in-law retired as a colonel in the marines, I told him it was sad. We need people in management there that a damn and have been through it. You'll do great Drew.

That is why the Army is pushing the GtG program so heavily right now among the junior enlisted guys...They are finally (maybe) realizing that it is much better to have a couple guys that have BTDT leading their platoons than just having fresh outta college guys..A good mix is what is needed in my not so humble opinion :smile:

I was part of Engineering even though we supported intel. I think eventually my MOS will be part of the intel copr though.

I was an 81T which is now 21U or something...Topographic Analyst.

G'luck Drew! I worked with quite a few former enlisted officers in the USAF and with only one exception, they were fine officers. For what it's worth, one of 'em was an E-7 when he made the jump and said O-1 was the toughest rank he ever held.

Good luck Drew...sounds like a good career move..I had a chance to change my MOS to 96D when I reuped...wish I would have now...I think its one of those job skills that easily trans. to a civilian job..
